Wisconsin Early Voting Statistics
The Biden-Harris campaign has an AMAZING site called BLUE VOTE. It has TONS of voting information on it. Go check it out!!
************************************
Where should we concentrate our efforts?
Counties that went for Clinton (with the % of the vote she won): Ashland (52.6), Bayfield (51.5), Dane (70.4), Douglas (50.4), Eau Claire (49.7), Green (48.0), Iowa (54.3), LaCrosse (50.9), Menominee (76.6), Milwaukee (65.5), and Rock (51.7).
Counties where Clinton was close (5 points or less): Columbia, Door, Kenosha (.3!), Racine, Sauk (.4!), and Vernon.
In the rural counties, we got hammered. (BUT: We can cut the margins this time!)
NOTE: The 2016 turnout in Milwaukee County was 441,053. In 2012 it was 492,576. This was the most significant drop-off, the result of Scott Walker’s vote suppression tactics and the deliberate use of social media to discourage minority turnout.
We can’t let any of this happen again.
And by god, we’re not going to.
REGISTRATION DEADLINE IN WISCONSIN:
- In Person: on Election Day.

VOTING INFORMATION FOR WISCONSIN
Vote on Election Day
Vote early
Wisconsin voters can also vote before Election Day through a process called absentee in-person voting. The period for absentee in-person voting runs from Tuesday, October 20, 2020 to Sunday, November 1, 2020, but dates and hours may vary based on where you live.
What to bring
- You will need to show a photo ID to vote in Wisconsin. An acceptable photo ID is not required to contain a current address. These photo IDs are acceptable and can be unexpired or expired after the date of the most recent general election, currently, the November 6, 2018 election: Wisconsin DOT-issued driver license, even if driving privileges are revoked or suspended; a Wisconsin DOT-issued identification card; military ID card issued by a U.S. uniformed service; U.S. passport; an identification card issued by a federally recognized Indian tribe in Wisconsin
- The following photo ID is also acceptable for voting purposes, and can be expired after November 6, 2018: a photo identification card issued by a Wisconsin accredited university or college that contains date of issuance, expiration date no later than two years after issuance, and signature of student (must be accompanied by a separate document that proves enrollment if the student ID is expired).
- The following photo IDs are also acceptable for voting purposes, but must be unexpired: a veteran's photo identification card issued by the Veterans Health Administration of the federal Department of Veterans Affairs; a certificate of naturalization that was issued not earlier than two years before the date of an election at which it is presented; a driving receipt issued by Wisconsin DOT (valid for 45 days); an identification card receipt issued by Wisconsin DOT (valid for 45 days).
- Voters without ID: If you are unable to provide photo ID, you will be able to vote a provisional ballot. Your provisional ballot will not count unless you provide an acceptable photo ID to your municipal clerk in person by 4:00 p.m. the Friday after the election.
